 | This is a documentation subpage for Module:Build bracket. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original module page. |
Description
This template is intended to be used to create and edit intricate sports brackets that cannot be made by Module:RoundN or Module:Team bracket. For example, additional headers (for double-elimination brackets; 3rd-, 5th-, 7th-place matches; etc), singular omitted matches (i.e., having a horizonal line instead of a match), and N-way brackets (N teams per match). The syntax is slightly more complicated than the aforementioned brackets, but simpler than using the standard wikitable code.
The template breaks down the brackets into rows and columns.

Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
rounds |
number of rounds (columns). |
rows |
(optional) manually set the number of rows. |
colm-headers |
Enter the row numbers where headers are desired in column m. Separate entries with ,. If empty for all m, then top round headers will auto-generate.
|
colm-teams |
Enter the row numbers where teams are desired in column m. Separate entries with ,.
|
colm-text |
Enter the row numbers where text is desired in column m. Separate entries with ,.
|
colm-lines |
Enter the row numbers where a line is desired in column m. Separate entries with ,.
|
colm-colm+1-paths |
Enter the starting and ending row numbers, separated by -, from columns m and m+1 where a path is desired. If a path should meet in between two rows, enter the rows separated by /. Separate entries with ,.
|
RDmRDmk |
The header text of the (alpha kth) header in round m (e.g., RD1b for the second header in round 1).
|
RDm-seedk |
The seed of the kth team in round m. |
RDm-teamk |
The name of the kth team in round m. |
RDm-scorekRDm-scorek-l |
The score of (the lth leg of) the kth team in round m. |
RDm-textk |
The text of the kth text entry in round m. |
seed-width |
the width of the cells for seeds. Plain numbers are assumed to be in px units (e.g., 25 or 25px 2em for 2em)
|
team-width |
the width of the cells for team names. Plain numbers are assumed to be in px units (e.g., 200 for 200px or 15em for 15em)
|
score-width |
the width of the cells for scores. Plain numbers are assumed to be in px units (e.g., 25 or 25px 2em for 2em)
|
seeds |
set to no to omit seeds in all rounds.
|
legs |
the number of legs for all rounds. |
RDm-legs |
the number of legs in round m. Overrides |legs=.
|
RD-shade |
the background color (in hex format, e.g. #ABCDEF) of all headers.
|
RDm-shadeRDmk-shade |
the background color (in hex format, e.g. #ABCDEF) of the (alpha character kth) header in round m. Overrides |RD-shade=.
|
compact |
set to yes to vertically condense the bracket. Does not work for N-way brackets, where N>2.
|
boldwinner |
set to yes to automatically bold the seed/team/score with the higher score. For N-way brackets (N teams per match, N>2), set teams-per-match=N.
|
Path codes
Path codes are entered in the form a/b-c/d, a-c/d, or a/b-c, where a, b are the row numbers in the starting column, and c, d are the row numbers in the ending column.

Examples
Note: These are only examples. Module:Team bracket and Module:RoundN handle some of these brackets much better than this template does.

<!-- Defaults -->
| RD2 = Grand Final
| RD1-seed1 = 1
| RD1-seed3 = 2
}}
